• 9 Aug 2023 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Speaker, Ex-Senior Sergeant Odhiambo vacated the barracks as his Run out Date (ROD) of 30th August 2019 approached, abandoning his family in the camp. So, his date of discharge was on 30th of August 2019. Before then, he abandoned his family in the camp. Efforts to have him return to the barracks to hand-over the government quarter was very unsuccessful. Members of his family, however, continued to stay in the barracks for four months beyond the ex-service member’s ROD. As a former service member of KDF, Hon. Didmus Barasa can attest to the fact that once your date ... view
• 9 Aug 2023 in National Assembly: On the disability issue, Ex Senior Sergeant Odhiambo was enlisted in KDF on 26th February 2007 and was initially discharged on compassionate grounds at his own request via discharge instructions dated 24th April 2019. His redress was on 2nd May 2019. He requested to be discharged on medical grounds. I am ready to provide the documents. In the Defence Council, the Air Force, Army and Navy Commanders sign. The Chief of Defence Forces ultimately signs as the Chair of the Defence Council. Ex Senior-Sergeant Odhiambo requested to be discharged on medical grounds due to an injury he sustained while in ... view
• 9 Aug 2023 in National Assembly: The medical board conducted an award and he was given 45 per cent medical pension compensation - 30 per cent for hearing loss and 15 per cent for major depressive disorder. In this regard, his file was submitted to the Pensions Office of the National Treasury on 23rd The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 9 Aug 2023 in National Assembly: October 2019, followed by the disability claim on 14th November 2019. The delay in settling his pension arose from the annulment of the KDF (Pensions and Gratuities) Regulations, 2017 by the National Assembly in 2018. This led to a delay in processing his military disability pension as from October 2019. This, however, was approved and a Pension Assessment Board was established via the Defence Council instruction dated July 2022. He has since visited the Pensions Office at the National Treasury to change his pay point and his file is being processed accordingly. view
• 9 Aug 2023 in National Assembly: I want to assure Hon. Masara that I will take it upon myself and my office to make sure that the National Treasury and the Pensions Fund pays his dues within the next 30 days. I assure him because that is his voter. The file and all documents are there. Hon. Masara, please, write to me and my officers will follow up with the National Treasury so that Ex Sergeant Odhiambo is paid his dues. view
• 9 Aug 2023 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Speaker, I have responded to the matter. I assure Hon. Masara that I will follow up with the National Treasury Pension Fund. The other day another Cabinet Secretary talked about “the one- Government approach.” Allow me to use the same approach on this one. Hon. Temporary Speaker, as I provide to Hon. Masara the documents he has requested, I will also be happy if he could provide me with the documents he has from the human rights organisation and other organisations he has mentioned for me to find out why those letters have not been responded to. We ... view
• 9 Aug 2023 in National Assembly: We have a very robust insurance scheme and policy for our retired officers through the Defence Forces Medical Insurance Scheme (DEFMIS). You can ask the officer if he was contributing to this scheme before he left the disciplined forces. If the answer is “yes”, then he must be enjoying his pension. Some of our officers never contributed to the scheme because they did not see the value. We also have a state-of-the-art wellness centre for our officers in service who get injured within and outside the country. We make sure that they get all the psycho-social support they need. I ... view
• 9 Aug 2023 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Speaker, Hon. Kamket’s statement is very controversial. He shared it with me when we were in the North Rift region, and I told him that we would discuss it behind the tent. Now that he has brought the matter to the Floor of the House, and serious counsels like Hon. Kaluma are sitting here, I will not answer it. Let the House decide on the recruitment criteria. The next question that I will be asked is why people go to school. When we were in Chemolingot, Hon. Kamket made a lot of sense. I agreed with him but ... view
• 26 Oct 2022 in National Assembly: Garissa Township, UDA): Hon. Temporary Speaker, as a seasoned Deputy Speaker who served in the 10th Parliament, you have said it right. The ranking Member, Hon. Mbadi, will agree with me on precedence. We have vetted a number of nominees, including the late Gen. Nkaisserry, before. Until this House approves me, I am now a state officer. The moment I hear that the House has approved me and there is swearing in at State House, then I will send in my resignation letter to the Speaker. In this debate, I cannot contribute or vote, but I have the right to ... view
• 26 Oct 2022 in National Assembly: Therefore, Hon. Temporary Speaker, please protect me from the Hon. Members! view
